BOILER AND FEED-STEAMER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 266,495, dated October 24, 1882,

Application filed August 5, 1882.

To all whom tt may concern Be it known that I, JESSE H. MCOANDLESS, of Oxford, in the county of Johnson and State of Iowa, have invented a new and Improved Boiler and Feed-Steamer, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide a boiler or steamer that may be applied to an ordinary stove or furnace.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, formi ng a part ot'this speci tication in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.

Figure l is a perspective view of the boiler. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of the same.

A is the boiler, which is of triangular form in cross-section, and is constructed with the wooden end pieces, a, and upper strip, 1), of wood, connecting the end pieces, the flat bottom 6 and inclined sides ff being formed of sheet metal drawntightly around the end pieces and nailed securelyin place. In the upper part of the boiler are valves 0 c, and a tube, (I, is connected at the upper part for conveying away the steam. The boiler is secured (No model.)

upon the furnace by the clasps g g, which pass over the inclined sidesf, across the ends to ears h, or any other convenient place on a furnace or stove.

This boiler or steamer is to be placed upon an ordinary stove or furnace, and on account of its broad bottom it has a large extent of heating-surface, and will boil water more rapidly and with less fuel than an ordinary kettle. For cooking or steaming feed it will act efficiently and without burning the material. The triangular form allows a small quantity of water to be heated for making; steam rapidly. The construction is durable, simple, and inexpensive.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The boiler constructed with the end pieces, a a, top piece, I), and metal sides and bottom attached to the end pieces, substantially as shown and described.
